It dries to powder form and is not sticky like plane old grease. I use the spray can formula in locks, hinges etc. You can get it at a auto supply. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Phil Parr" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, February 16, 2007 2:30 AM Subject: Re: [BlindHandyMan] Sliding doors.

Phil, The best thing I have used is white lithium grease in a spray can. You can get it in other forms also. If it is a cheap door, you may not have adjustments unless you take off the door, which you may have to do anyway, if its been years of not cleaning. Some doors have holes with plugs that you can remove to adjust the rollers with a screwdriver.

I was informed this morning in no uncertain terms by my little wife, princess Luan Luan, that I must do something about those dam patio doors or else. One of them, I have two, is just a little hard to open and the other one, the one I worked on, is getting almost impossible to use. I no you are suppose to use dry lubricant on the rollers but here is the problem. Only dry stuff I have ever seam is that little tube that is hard to use and not very much. Where can I buy a coffee can full of that dry stuff or, do I need that much. Also, I suppose those adjustments on each and of the door raze and lower the rollers, is that correct. Help, Phil Parr.
